The answer

If the association is an agreement between individuals to pay a monthly sum to one of them in rotation, then it is permissible. Striving to collect lawful money for marriage is praiseworthy.

However, if it is a charitable association for marrying off those in need, there is no impediment to seeking assistance if you are in need and cannot afford the costs of marriage, provided there is no lying or deception. It is not permissible to defraud to obtain assistance by violating the association's conditions.

The fiancée is a stranger until the legal contract is concluded with her.
